The PROTON IMPIAN (2001-09) 4DR SALOON 1.6 is a compact, four-door family saloon, rather than a hatchback or SUV. It sits in the affordable end of the used-car market, offering straightforward transport and a traditional boot. In Britain it is now an uncommon, older alternative to familiar small family saloons. mycarcheck.com has recorded 12 look-ups covering nine different VINs, so this is a modest snapshot, not a full market survey. Those records suggest an average private-sale value of £500 and average recorded mileage of 116,000 miles. Cars checked averaged five previous keepers and about 8,000 miles driven each year. It suits budget-conscious commuters and small families needing practical transport, provided they accept an older car. The four-door layout and simple, unpretentious character are its appeal. Compared with Toyota Corolla or Ford Focus saloons, the Impian is rarer in Britain, so check condition, service records and parts availability carefully before buying.
